Chapter 499: Reward
Zhu Youzhen, the Son of Heaven, thought for a while and said: "The soldiers who died in the Battle of Jinzhou are all heroes who sacrificed their lives for the country. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info all the fallen soldiers and was promoted to the second level posthumously. ”
The Son of Heaven thought for a while, and then said: "All the ordinary soldiers who died in battle were posthumously awarded the rank of General Banner Military Attaché. ”
The general flag is the military attache of the seventh grade, although for the general soldiers, the generals are a small officer, but in the eyes of the ordinary people, this is already an "official". When you become the general flag, you can wear a blue military attache robe, soap boots and a black gauze hat, and have a status and status much higher than that of civilians.
For ordinary non-commissioned officers from civilian backgrounds, the general flag is already a well-known officer. If you can become the general flag, you can be regarded as getting ahead.
The Son of Heaven posthumously awarded the ordinary soldiers who died in battle as the general flag, which was a great honor for these soldiers. This was not only a royal gesture, but also directly changed the social status of these soldiers who died in battle. The social status of military attaches and soldiers can be described as worlds apart, and there are various differences in etiquette. With the status of the general flag, in the funeral etiquette, these soldiers can also enjoy higher mourning, so that the families of the soldiers are more respected.
Wang Chengen waved his hand and said to the little eunuchs behind him: "Go down and pass on the reward of the Son of Heaven to the soldiers." ”
Dozens of eunuchs chanted their promises loudly, ran down, walked around the ranks of the soldiers who were paraded, and passed the Son of Heaven's dictation to the five thousand soldiers who were read.
Hearing the good news, the nine general soldiers were all overjoyed and happy for the soldiers who died in battle. The 5,000 soldiers holding the tablets were also full of excitement on their faces, excited for the robes who sacrificed their lives.
The Son of Heaven looked at the tablets held by the soldiers at the noon gate for a while, and then moved out of the noon gate and walked to the Imperial Palace with the guard of honor. A eunuch walked down the noon gate, and shouted to Li Zhi, the Duke of Jinguo, and the nine general soldiers: "Please dismount Li Zhi, the Duke of Jinguo, and the nine general soldiers, and enter the Imperial Palace to receive the reward of the Jinzhou War." ”
Li Zhi and the nine general soldiers jumped off their horses and put down their weapons, and under the guidance of the eunuchs, they walked into the noon gate and walked towards the Imperial Palace.
Wang Pu was very nervous all the way, his hands trembled when he walked, and he kept hanging at the back of the team of nine general soldiers, as if he was afraid that there would be hundreds of axe men in ambush in the Imperial Palace, so he suddenly rushed out and cut down all of them. But walking through the Fengtian Gate, Wang Pu saw that on the square outside the Huangji Palace, there were already thousands of civil and military officials wearing court clothes.
Almost all the Beijing officials with some status, whether they were civilian officials of the Sixth Ministry or military generals of the Beijing camp, wore court clothes and gorgeous crowns and hats on both sides of the road in the middle of the square. Obviously, today, in order to reward the heroes of the Jinzhou War, the Son of Heaven summoned a huge team of officials to witness.
The general soldiers looked at each other for a while, and they all looked at Li Zhi, the prince of Jinguo, who was walking in front. There is no need for these general soldiers to engage in such a big posture, and at most one of them is a prince and Taibao. Obviously, this gorgeous ceremonial procession was put out for the official canonization of Li Zhi as the Duke of Jinguo.
Li Zhizhi was crowned as the Duke of Jinguo, but there has been no official canonization ceremony, and now that the major event has been decided, it is time to hold the ceremony.
Seeing Li Zhi leading nine general soldiers over, the military attaches of the civil ministers and military officers in the square looked at Li Zhi in unison, their eyes were complicated.
Some military attachés were full of envy, Li Zhi was already a very popular minister at a young age, and he enjoyed such a big battle when he was canonized. Even if they struggle for ten lifetimes, they can't reach such heights, which is really jealous, and they must have a good chance to tie up Li Zhi. In the hearts of these people, Li Zhi first offended the gentry of the world, and then led his troops to besiege the city and persecute the Son of Heaven, and it was a matter of time before he would be ruined in the future.
Some civil officials from the gentry looked at Li Zhi nakedly, as if Li Zhi was their enemy, and they wanted to come up and bite Li Zhi to death. There is no doubt that as soon as they turn around and take off their court clothes, they will try their best to make it difficult to bring down Li Zhi.
Under the gaze of thousands of people, Li Zhi slowly walked through the square and walked towards the Imperial Palace.
Seeing such a huge lineup, Wang Pucai breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that the Son of Heaven is not too angry with the matter of the 160,000 border army Chen Bing in the suburbs of Beijing, and there is definitely no ambush knife and axe hand in this imperial palace. If you really want to capture and kill Li Zhi and the nine general soldiers, you will definitely keep a low profile and will not invite thousands of people to watch this bloody scene.
Wang Pu looked at the grand scene and thought that this was also a witness to his promotion, and he was a little happy. His slightly pale face gradually turned red with fright, and he smiled, and strode forward.
On the Imperial Palace, the Son of Heaven was already sitting on the throne, and the high-ranking officials were already wearing court clothes on both sides, waiting for the arrival of Li Zhi and others. Li Zhi led nine general soldiers into the hall, knelt on the ground and shouted long live.
Zhu Youzhen happily let Li Zhi and the others flatten themselves, looked up and down at the ten people, stroked his beard and said: "They are all loyal ministers of my Ming Dynasty!" ”
After a pause, the Son of Heaven said again: "Now that the traitorous ministers who have brought disaster to the country and the people have been cut off, what do the ten Aiqing think?" ”
On behalf of the nine general soldiers, Li Zhi shouted loudly: "My Emperor Shengming! My emperor should be cut off by the people, the law is magnificent, the world is alive, which is not joyful? I'm waiting for a martial artist, which one is not grateful to Dade? ”
Zhu Youzhen laughed, nodded and said, "Okay!" You can say that again! ”
Seeing the scene of Li Zhi and the Son of Heaven being happy with each other, the civil officials in the hall looked sideways slightly, and their faces were a little angry. Unexpectedly, Li Zhi led his troops to force the palace, and in the end, it ended up like this. Such an outcome is something that the civil servants do not want to see in any case.
Li Zhi and the nine general soldiers stood in the queue, and the officials of Honglu Temple shook their whips and sang loudly: "Canonized the crown prince and the prince, the military department is still the book, the capital of the Imperial Palace, the governor of Jiliao Baoding and other military affairs Hong Chengchou is Wen Dingbo, and Hong Chengchou is listed and entitled." ”
Hong Chengchou was boned. Hong Chengchou, who was standing at the forefront of the civil official ranks, threw off his official robe, was so excited that two tears flowed on his face, strode to the center of the Imperial Palace, and prostrate on the ground to be sealed.
The complicated ceremony of fiddling with the feudal ceremony for a long time, Hong Chengchou received all kinds of honor guard uniforms, and he was so excited that his face was flushed with tears, and it took half an hour to complete the full set of ceremonies.
Then the nine general soldiers stepped forward one by one to accept the reward.
Among the nine general soldiers, Cao Bianjiao has the highest official position, and he was originally the crown prince and young guard. With the credit of this exit, he was promoted to the crown prince.
The governor of the same country, Yang Guozhu, was promoted to the governor of the left and entered the prince Shaobao. The governor of the prefecture, Ma Ke, was promoted to the governor of the same place. Zuodu Governor Zu Dashou defended Jinzhou meritoriously, and added the prince Shaobao. Wang Pu was originally the governor of the capital, and this time he was promoted to the governor of the left. Wu Sangui was promoted from the governor of the department to the governor of the province.
In the end, it was Li Zhi's turn, and when the previous promotions, including those of other military attachés below the general army, were all read, they heard the officials of Honglu Temple singing: "Canonized as the Governor of Tianjin, the Prince and the Prince, and the Governor of the Left Capital Li Zhi as the 'Fengtian Yiyun Tuicheng' Jin Guogong, Li Zhi stepped forward to be entitled!" ”
